Im interested in your case and worried by the fact you had to pay so much for your neccessay dental treatment. Im at high risk of osteonecrosis of the jaw due to radiotherapy to my jaw plus receiving denosumab as part of my current treatment. I was told not to allow my dentist to do any extractions but to contact the cancer unit at my hospital who would refer me to the Maxillofacial department for dental treatment. I wonder why you were not offered this by your health trust.

Hi Ed,

Thank you so much for your fantastic advice. I'll speak to my cancer unit on Monday, as the tooth next to it also needs a root canal, but that one's more complex and more expensive, almost £2,500, hence why I posted my first message, as I'd told them I'd have to save up.

So, once again thank you, you've answered my original question, all the best and thank you,
